Don't really understand what was going on in the scenario at all, but it only took a few minutes and was the epitome of faceroll. Seems pretty pointless to me, unless maybe there's some huge lore thing I'm missing since idgaf about lore

Supposed to be for the lore nerds iirc

getting ready to try it out
09-17-2012 , 07:58 PM
how many people do you need to do ulduar these days?

i never saw it so i'm thinking of getting in there
09-17-2012 , 08:01 PM

It's available, but I thought the same thing.

It was a faceroll, kill a couple mobs, get a 384 ilvl purple and a FoS.
09-17-2012 , 08:43 PM
how or when do you get a FoS and a purple?

no loot dropped for us

eta

oh, i see i already got the feat
09-17-2012 , 08:49 PM
You should have gotten the Feat of Strength, but I have run it twice and seen nothing but trash greens drop randomly.

Got 2 chests with fireworks in them.
09-17-2012 , 09:01 PM
The chests randomly contain 384 epics, but not everytime. No idea what the drop rate is. I'm guessing it's 1/3 (as in one person in the group gets a drop) and it's always suitable to your spec.

Overall the scenario was lame, I was expecting something a bit more epic. Not in terms of the scale / difficulty, but like, lorewise even, it's nothing interesting. I thought it would feel more like you are playing a big part in the event...

agreed

Didn't even really know there was a story at all tbh

I don't even know why they bothered putting loot in, it's not like the loot matters at all a week before the expansion. It's probably just to dampen some of the whining about how pointless it is I guess.

Xmog?

Last week of cataclysm!
09-18-2012 , 09:21 AM
So, after cata started, when you zoned into LK zones, you saw bolvar or whoever sitting on the frozen throne accepting his new position as the lich king.

Does that mean we'll see a different loading screen for cata zones come next tuesday?
09-18-2012 , 10:11 AM
There are already some new load screens in the game. The Scenario one was new. Also I think at least a couple of the loading screens say "Mists of Pandaria" instead of Cataclysm.

Last night my Pennance ticks were hitting mobs for about 3.5k each. Now they hit for 1500. What happened?
09-18-2012 , 01:50 PM
Hm, if I'd known I was going to inexplicably do 75% less damage today than I did yesterday, I would have done Ring of Blood last night :/

Eh, Warmaul Champion's Mortal strike hits me for 90% of my HP anyway. Guess it's not going to happen.

****ing boo! that sucks!

wonder if they say anything about huge nerfs to lowbies
09-18-2012 , 03:04 PM
apparently gold drops were stealth nerfed, too, so owning a 25 guild just got a lot less profitable
09-18-2012 , 03:08 PM
On the MMO forums they're saying Disc Priests got the Shockadin treatment.

15 scenarios x 250g each kind of make up for it
09-18-2012 , 04:13 PM
Well, the Priest nerf is a major buzzkill.

One option I haven't given much weight to is actually taking a break until next week instead of trying to figure out all the things I could be doing until the expansion comes out.
09-18-2012 , 09:20 PM
I'll be mostly playing Borderlands 2 till next week
09-18-2012 , 09:45 PM
When people started talking about Borderlands 2 I got on my PS3 because I thought I had the original. Turns out it was a limited time thing on PlayStation+.

So I never played the original. What was it like? Good FPS?
09-18-2012 , 10:03 PM
Yeah, it was basically a FPS RPG. Story was bad, gameplay wasn't anything too special, but it was fun for some reason. A lot more fun with other people, playing solo gets boring pretty fast.
